About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a friendly mini golden doodle, I specialize in dog walking, pet sitting, feeding, and care. With experience caring for dogs of all sizes, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for your furry friend. Pet-friendly and full of love, I'll give your dog the attention and care they deserve! I'm currently working full time but Monday-Friday I'm available after 5. Depending on how early, I can do the morning on weekdays too. I’m available all day and night on weekends. When I am with your pet, it will be loved all the way until you return. There are already dogs that live with me, and they will learn to love your dogs. There isn't a fenced in area, but I always have the dogs on a leash and watch them carefully.

About: I have always had pets growing up and continue to keep dogs as an adult. I have raised and trained a variety of breeds and ages. I just moved to the area, and my dream job would be playing with dogs all day. I will need most weekends for family, but during the week I am available. May be able to make arrangements for weekend. I would love to take your fur baby for a walk. I have 2 other dogs in my home. I can easily crate or separate dogs as necessary.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two pugs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, medications, senior dogs, and giving pets extra attention and affection while their owners are away. I also work in hospice care, so being compassionate, calm, and reliable comes naturally to me. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure you feel updated and reassured while you’re gone. I work full time during the week from 9am–6:30pm, but pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already care for my two pugs daily. I’m available for evening visits/walks on weekdays and have much more flexibility on weekends for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I pay close attention during walks and outdoor time, especially in hot weather, and I never leave dogs outside longer than they should be. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and close supervision to keep them safe from anything that could bother or harm them. I’m also very mindful about keeping floors and spaces clear of anything pets could get into or accidentally swallow. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your animals, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own

About: I have been pet sitting for 3 years and love all animals! I have a perfect setup for animal care, including a walking trail behind my house. I’m home during the week-I have 2 middle school aged boys that are in school and my husband works long hours. I am able to get up early for morning walks or feedings. I have a fenced in yard, with stairs leading to a deck, walk out basement with kitchenette for food storage, play area, and a resting bedroom.

About: My name is Belle, and I've been a passionate animal lover my entire life. From a young age, I've found immense joy in the company of pets, whether it's their playful energy, their comforting presence, or the unconditional love they offer. For me, spending time with animals isn't just a job; it's a true privilege. I work part time so I will have plenty of time throughout the day to tend to your animals and I am very reliable to communicate with I can build trust with you and your animals and I will always make sure what I will be doing with your animal is okay with you first

About: I have spent countless years caring for all shapes and sizes of animals. Anything from fish, to guinea pigs, to horses, and all in between. I currently work full time, but my employer is very flexible and understanding of my schedule, and allows me to do whatever is needed for the comfort of your furry friends. I spend countless hours in your home, with your fur babies, to ensure that they are able to run and play, just as they would if you were there. I strive to make their lives normal, just like it would be if you were home with them.

About: I've been taking care of my own pets since I was eight years old. Currently I take care of my bichon and bichon poodle in my home. I have pet sat Maine Coon cats, labrador retrievers, golden retrievers, basset hounds, beagles, and german shepherds. Additionally, I have experience that ranges from puppy care to senior care. I am more than happy to do a phone call or meet in person so we can get to know each other, or stop by to meet the pups before I stay with them :) I'm working part-time right now, so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I am super flexible and don't mind getting up early/leaving late. In your home, I am more than happy to accomodate the routines for your dog and the routines of your household. It's important to me to keep the dogs safe, utilizing baby gates, shutting doors/cabinets, and having fences as needed.

I can't say enough great things about Amelia. We have now used her a second time, and it was even better than the first time we gave a five-star review because she was familiar with our pets and the house. She is great with the pets (they love her) and so respectful of our house. We will continue to use Amelia as long as she is available in our area.

FAQs for House Sitting - Midway

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Midway is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $44 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 917 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Midway. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Midway walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Midway maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Midway choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Midway. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
